Pros:
1. Best live music value anywhere other than Nightfall.
2. Finding those bands you never heard of that knock your socks off! This year - Jason Ricci and New Blood, Anna Popovic, Trombone
Shorty, Joe Bonamassa.
3. Convenient parking.
4. Great restaurants nearby.
5. ZZ Top
6. Any Zydeco band
7. The sound system at the Unum stage
Cons:
1. Those %#&@!! Chair People and their sense of entitlement to more space than enyone else and an unobstructed view while sitting on their butt. They are probably the greatest contributor to the human traffic jam in front of the Coke Stage every year. BAN THE CHAIR PEOPLE.
2. "Must see" acts that disappoint. This year - RR Earth (elevator music).
3. The absence of the Bud Light stage and its funky atmosphere - the only place that seemed to actually encourage dancing.
4. The "no water bottle rule". This isn't the airport. Thank you Rock Creek Outfitters for giving away bottles inside the fest.
5. Habitat for Humanity and their disregard of every construction safety standard in the book.
6. The Coke Stage sound system.
